Abstract: In a device for working the outer periphery of a pipe (1), the cross-section of which is approximately oval and deviates slightly from the circular shape, by means of a cutting tool (3) which is attached to a frame (4) adjustable radially relative to the pipe (1), in which arrangement a relative rotary movement can be performed between pipe (1) and frame (4) about the longitudinal centre axis (5) of the pipe (1), several hydraulic adjusting devices have hitherto been required to centre the pipe at the centre of a circular path of the tool. To simplify this device, the tool (3) can now be supported on the pipe (1) via only two supporting rollers (6) mounted in a fixed position on the frame (4) in front of and behind the tool (3) in the direction of the rotary movement at an equal rotary-angle distance (ss) of 30 DEG  to 60 DEG , the axes of rotation of the supporting rollers (6) being parallel to the longitudinal centre axis (5) of the pipe (1). <IMAGE>

Abstract: Roof rack for motor vehicles for accommodating loads, especially bicycles, which comprises at least two divided cross members (1) and divided supporting clamps (2) which are in each case bent downwards in the form of limbs (21, 22) and are connected to one another by means of pivot joints (4). The divided nature of the supporting clamps (2) makes it possible for them to pivot downwards across the pivot joint (4). This means that the receiving elements (55 handlebars, 56/57 saddle) are situated at a height above the ground which approximately corresponds to the receiving points on the bicycle. <IMAGE>

Date Oct. 28, 1993.A sprag clutch having inner and outer concentric races 1, 2 with sprags 3 pivotally located between the races 1, 2. A circumferential garter spring 6 locates over the sprags 3 to bias them to a wedging position. Relative rotation of the races 1, 2 in one direction causes a centrifugal force CF to act on each sprag 3 to pivot away from contact with the outer race 2. The center of gravity G of each sprag 3 is located radially inwards of its center of rotation C such that when the sprag 3 pivots the centrifugal couple CF increases to overcome the increased tension couple SF of the garter spring to allow a snap action lift off of each sprag 3. The perpendicular distance of the center of gravity from the pivot center of each sprag increases during pivoting to cause an increase in the centrifugal couple. At the same time the perpendicular distance of the pivot point of action of the resilient mean from the pivot center decreases during pivoting. The snap action substantially reduces the contact time between the sprags 3 and the outer race 2 and hence wear is reduced.

Abstract: Several spaced cross bars (12) are set between two traction supports and the pockets (13) are fixed between the adjoining cross bars. The pockets have a rubber or rubber-like base wall and in order to fix this the cross bars have a fastening surface which is inclined to the traction supports. The cross bars are preferably of triangular cross-section such as a right-angled isosceles triangle. The cross-sectional shapes can be different in the longitudinal direction so that a reduced cross-sectional surface is formed between the traction supports. The cross bars are made of rubber or rubber-like material reinforced by a single steel cable or tube in the centre. Advantage - More reliable filling of the pockets without loss of material. Reduced wear by avoiding relative movement between parts.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for controlling the temperature of an object, in particular a semiconductor wafer support structure (62) in a wafer processing chamber. A gas gap (64) is created between the two adjacent objects (62, 70) of different temperatures. The pressure in the gap (64) is adjusted to control the thermal conductivity of the gas between the two structures. To have a large heat flow between the two objects (62, 70) so that their temperatures can be closely matched, the pressure is increased. To maintain the temperature of the object (62) sought to be controlled regardless of the temperature of the adjacent item (heat source/sink) the pressure is reduced to a strong vacuum (acting as insulation) so that very little heat flow occurs through the gas gap (64). Localized control acts together with a local heat sink to precisely control the temperature of a semiconductor support structure pedestal/cathode (62) to maintain the uniformity of the temperature of the wafer during processing to prevent wafer surface process anomalies due to variations and gradients in temperature. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention concerns color separation scanning of an input picture and fitting a picture into a layout page. The input picture is pre-scanned at a selectively low resolution and displayed. At least one desired geometric manipulation of the input picture by physically moving same is performed. The manipulated input picture is then scanned at a relatively high resolution to provide relatively high color resolution. The second scanning may take place on a region of the input picture around a point selected on the displayed picture. To fit a picture into a layout, two points are marked on each the displayed picture and layout and the picture is physically rotated and magnified so that the corresponding points match before rescanning the rotated and magnified picture.

Abstract: A waste treatment system in which incoming waste is initially separated by a separator into solid and liquid components, without significantly emulsifying the solid components. The separator requires no energy to provide a solid waste component having a very small amount of liquid therein. The solid waste is then incinerated in a microwave reactor chamber which requires little energy, and which results in an extremely small amount of resulting ash, on the order of 0.1% of the incoming solid volume, with the solid treatment requiring little energy as a result of the effective separation accomplished by the separator. Optionally, a liquid treatment module can also be provided for removing any suspended solid remnants from the liquid component exiting the separator, with the liquid treatment module separating any suspended solids from the liquid component. The solid remnants removed from the liquid are also incinerated, with the liquid then subjected to further processing and purification.

Abstract: A positioning tool has an elongated cylindrical section for reversibly engaging an acetabular cup which is insertable through a posterior opening in the cup. The outer diameter of a proximal portion of the cylindrical section is expandable to engage the inner wall of the cup in an interference fit to prevent movement of the cup relative to the tool and hold the cup in engagement with the tool to move the cup with movement of tool to place the cup for implanting at a desired position. The expanded portion of the tool may be contracted to release it from the cup after implantation. The proximal portion, which is attached to the distal portion and separated therefrom by a partial transverse slot, is divided into semicircular sections by a diametrical vertical slot therebetween. Diametrically opposite quadrants of the proximal portion further contain elongated slots therethrough which are perpendicular to the vertical slot and spaced from the edge of the cylinder by a thin section. The outer diameter of the proximal portion of the cylindrical section may be expanded or contracted by pivoting the semicircular sections around the thin spaces between the elongated slots and edges of the proximal portions. The tool further comprises means for causing the semicircular sections to move relative to each other to expand or contract the diameter of the cylindrical section.
